Sarah Palin was in the Kansas City area campaigning for Republican Sarah Steelman, and I don't know whether to laugh or cry at her outfit. In a tight Superman tee (because man of steel, and Steelman, etc.), movie star shades, black capris pants, and what can only be described as strappy clonkers that junior high students in the early '90s wore to their end of school dance, Sarah Palin's ensemble raised a few eyebrows, and a few red flags.
All that's missing is a scrunchie and maybe a Tamagotchi pet. If a picture is worth a thousand words, please, go ahead, drink it in.
The shirt's excusable -- she was just showing some support -- but the rest of the look, it borderline hurts. I feel personally affronted by such a terrible selection of clothing. If you want me to vote for you, or for who you want me to vote for, show me that you know how to put together an outfit.
Show me that you have the wherewithal to look at a pair of shoes and know that they're not the best choice for a pop up rally in a blueberry field. Show me you know something about dressing for success. Don't show me your french-manicured toes sticking out of a pair of 5-inch platforms.
Sarah looked so sharp during the 2008 election -- whatever happened to those Tahari suits? Somewhere in the back of her closet, an Escada dress is weeping.

So, making fun of your opponent's clothing is a good and worthwhile topic? I disagree. I believe it is a low and shameful topic and not worthy of discussion. Further, I'd be happy to hear any of your thoughts (given in specifics) on Sarah Palin's stances on issues or policies. I'm not all that familiar with her, but I'd be happy to educate myself and discuss why she is or isn't good for the GOP (aside from idiotic criticisms of her appearance).
The only part of her outfit I question is the shoes, because they do not look comfortable. And that is the only thing I have to say about the outfit, because heavens only know I am not a fashion icon. (At the moment, I am wearing a gray t-shirt, blue jean shorts, athletic socks and work boots. What can I say, I dress for comfort.)
